Tite's absence from the press conference will certainly generate a lot of buzz in the sports press. Speculation about the reasons behind this decision will soon emerge.

0After a series of controversial events and growing tensions between the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and the Brazilian national team coach, Tite, an unusual decision was made behind the scenes. In a closed-door meeting, communications management and the football department reached a radical agreement: Tite would not attend the post-game press conference.
Rumors about Tite's discontent with the refereeing have been circulating in the football corridors for some time. Bruno Spindel, director of Flamengo, expressed harsh criticism of the conduct of the referees on the field, which only inflamed the situation even more. Considering this explosive context, communication management and the football department found themselves faced with the need to act assertively.
The duo, made up of Bruno Spindel and Tite, had a frank conversation before the game, discussing strategies and possible developments in the match. They concluded that any approach to refereeing in the post-game press conference could trigger an even more heated reaction from the coach. Therefore, they jointly decided that Tite would be spared this situation.
By communicating the decision to Tite, the coach's reaction was one of acceptance. He understood the sensitivity of the moment and recognized that his presence at the press conference would only fuel speculation about the controversial arbitration. Furthermore, Tite's reserved profile in relation to matters that he considers strictly related to the direction of the team is notorious.
This radical attitude of the communication management and the football department reflects not only the climate of tension between the technical committee and the CBF, but also the need to preserve the coach's emotional integrity and prevent the situation from worsening even further. It's a risky strategy, but it highlights the team's determination to protect its interests, both on and off the field.
